House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) said on Sunday that he hopes “to hell†that he would have voted to impeach former President Obama if he was found to have engaged in the same conduct President Trump is charged with in the impeachment articles brought against him.
He made the comment during an appearance on ABC’s "This Week†on Sunday morning, during which he accused congressional Republicans of “placing this president above their oath of office†as a number of them continue to defend Trump’s dealings with the Ukraine that were at the center of an impeachment inquiry.
"What has really changed between now and Watergate isn't the nature of the president's conduct,†Schiff said in the discussion with ABC’s George Stephanopoulos, according to NBC News.
